Animal control officials seeking kitten abuser

Animal control officials are seeking information about a motorist who reportedly threw a kitten from a moving car along State Highway 31 last week.

A passing motorist picked up the kitten and notified Maury County Animal Control, which then called a cat shelter in Columbia for assistance.

Eva’s Eden is currently housing the animal. A website entry about the incident states the kitten appears to have been previously abused. A local veterinarian removed gravel from the kitten’s face and a dead part of his tail also had to be removed.

Part of the skin on his tail has been ripped off and it appears the kitten had been attacked by larger animal, according to Eva’s Eden website.

Anyone with information about the vehicle in which the kitten was thrown from is asked to call Maury County Animal Control at (931) 375-1408.
